Distributing Files during Install

If you are customizing the installation, you might want the setup program to include some of your customized files in the installation. This is now possible. You can have the setup program copy any number of files and sub folders to the folder where the program is installed. The folder where the program is installed is called the application folder and is typically located in C:\Program Files\bioPDF\PDF Writer.

The steps you have to follow to distribute your own application folder files with the setup program are summarized below:

  1. Create a folder named APP next to the setup executable.

  2. Place the files that you want to distribute in the APP folder. This folder can contain any number of files and sub folders. A typical use of this folder is distribution of preconfigured global@printername.ini files. The distributed ini file could be used to configure watermarks, hide dialogs and a lot of other things. See the settings section for a full list of valid settings.

Note: This feature was introduced in version 5.0.0.590. It is only supported in the commercial version and custom build PDF writers.
